    TeslaMate [megathread]

    Thanks yes that makes sense. I'll try waking the car while viewing and see if the temps appear. Thanks

    TeslaMate [megathread]

    I've had Teslamate running locally on a RaspberryPi for a few days and mostly looks good. Couple of things though - the interior and exterior temps show as n/a. Anything I need to do to make these show? Also I can access it via my laptop browser (Chromebook) but doesn't let me from my phone. I'm...

    Accessories Catalogue: Everything that's on my car.

    Thank you. Just going through the set up now. I've had Tasker for years but always looked a bit daunting and never knew I had a use for it.

    Accessories Catalogue: Everything that's on my car.

    Thanks for this. Just ordered some NFC tags. Quick question when using the Tesla plugin for Tasker it asks you to log in with your Tesla account. As this is a pretty significant log in did you just do that or did you use an auth token or something instead? Not keen on sharing my log in with...

    DAB Radio: Playing Now Info Field Too Short

    My last 3 cars have had the same issue. Drives me mad as all those cars had plenty of room to display the info or could even just scroll it but instead they just show the first few words.

    Model 3 Leasing UK

    To be fair every other manufacturer offers 3 years break down cover on new cars

    Model 3 Leasing UK

    Yes I ordered mine through Electric Auto and received the car 2 weeks ago. Never heard anything about AA membership. I noticed on my car insurance basic Green Flag cover was only £1 per month so added that. You have the Tesla assistance as well so should be covered. I was under the impression...

    Centre Console Covers

    Yes, you were totally right. Completely out of sight on the driver's side but can see it clearly from the passenger side. Thanks

    Centre Console Covers

    Thanks I'll have a look. Seems a bit pointless as couldn't see that part so not worth covering

    I think coins would be jumping all over the place on there.

    Centre Console Covers

    Mine arrived today. Pretty easy to fit. The one with the cup holders you can't go wrong with as overlaps the cup holder holes. The one under the screen was easy as nothing to get in the way as that opens. The middle one slightly more tricky. Hopefully you can see in the pictures I had to move it...

    Silverstone Track day in a Model 3 Performance

    Might be a bit cheeky but worth checking the Porsche dealership there. Sure they will have electric charging points for the Taycan.

    2020.20.17

    Do you have to turn this on? I did the update this evening and just went out in it and reverse was the same single camera. No mention in the updates about this. Model 3 maybe didn't get this?

    Centre Console Covers

    No, not arrived yet. I'll report back once I have them.

    Samsung T5 alternatives?

    I did that, I think after your recommendation on another thread. 200gb card and had been working well all for around £30. Wish they'd update the app so could get sentry alerts and view the footage.

    New Tesla owner

    Not sure I have your confidence for the sake of saving £11 (or £33 without the customs charge) on something pretty important for safety. AliExpress is great for many things but an electrical safety item?

    AutoPark + Smart Summon Questions

    Is summon part of the normal autopilot or do you have to have FSD? All the info I can find suggests all have it but I can't find the option on mine anywhere in the autopilot settings.

    Collecting a Tesla when it's a company car/lease

    Thanks, yes just checked and can see the payment option.

    Collecting a Tesla when it's a company car/lease

    Really? Before I'd collected my car my account just said no products linked to my account so wouldn't let me log in. This was the app in case that makes a difference. I had the same thought as above how does supercharging get charged? I assumed it would be with the Tesla app.

    2019/20 Orders and Deliveries [closed]

    Me too. Easily the worst car collection experience I've had but half expected. I was waiting 2 and a half hours, glad the rain never came. The guy in the office told me they were doing 160 cars today and had zero booked in for tomorrow. All geared to get them all out by the end of the quarter...

    L Looks great, so much better with the aero wheel trims removed. I wish they would tint the rear windows as standard. Most cars are like that these days

    Model 3 Leasing UK

    This could work, just take it out in your personal name. Once started change the direct debit to your business bank. The only issue maybe the invoices will be addressed to you instead of your company. I'm sure your accountant can get round that though.

    Electric Vehicle Homecharge Scheme authorised installers These are all those approved for the £350 grant. Looks like there are 4 in Belfast.

    Apart from a driving licence do I need anything else with me to collect my car? It doesn't mention anything in the email I received. Thanks

    Model 3 Leasing UK

    Have a look on leasing.com and it will compare prices from loads of different lease companies. That's the easiest way to check the price.

    Sentry Mode/Dashcam Best Storage Method

    Same, just going through the lease handback for a Velar. Well used to software issues with that so any with the Tesla I'm sure won't be as bad.

    Anyone that leased how soon did the car appear in the app after e-signing the online acceptance form?

    System crashes

    As with phone software updates is it wise to delay updating the car for a few weeks after available just so they have some time to correct any issues? Or do you have no choice - the car does the update regardless.

    2020 Shipping Movements

    I spoke too soon, half an hour after this I had a call from Tesla, collection booked for next Tuesday.

    2020 Shipping Movements

    Thank you. No exact match for me but suggestion it was heading to Zeebrugge on the 20th May. Was collecting tomorrow but they said the ship has been delayed until the 30th

    Model 3 Leasing UK

    I think the only PCP option is with Tesla directly. Might be worth talking with a finan e company like Oracle as they can do PCPs I believe. I'm pretty sure all those you mention are contract hire only.

    Model 3 Leasing UK

    I've leased through Electric Auto (which is part of Zenith I think) and had a decision the same day. They've not been the quickest since then but as far as I can see I'm just waiting for them to transfer the money to Tesla so my order can be fulfilled. If the collection date is met (this Friday)...

    Home charger installation

    Thanks. That's not too bad. I think I'll have a week or two between getting the car and having the charger installed so can cope with that.

    Home charger installation

    In the real world rather than quoted figures how much charge have you been getting from a normal socket?

    Home charger installation

    Ha I see. Obvious now, I was thinking about the cable supplying power to it

    Home charger installation

    I saw them, they look quite nice. Where does the cable go if not visible, buried?

    Home charger installation

    Thank you all for the info and advice. I think one of the reason one installer liked the Zappi was reliability. Horses for course though. At least no one has said the price is ridiculous and I'm being ripped off. Just waiting for the Rolec quote from the other guy and then will decide.
  43. J

    Home charger installation

    Does this price look reasonable? I appreciate every installation will be slightly different so not always comparable.

    Home charger installation

    I am awaiting a couple of quotes. I'll tell you what they said to see if any of you can point out anything obvious. First one Only able to get the grant on Rolec chargers. Several options and seemed quite straight forward. It was the Rolec Wallpod which looks pretty smart. Second one Can...

    Model 3 Leasing UK

    If you assume handing the car back at the end of a PCP then simply compare the cost of PCP against a lease. My wife's car last year I did exactly that and the lease cost was £100 a month cheaper than doing it on a PCP. Not always going to work out that way round. Obviously less to compare with a...

    Anything longer than 3 years you will have to MOT. Not a big deal really as shouldn't any issues but just something to factor in.

    Home charger installation

    The little charging adapter for using a non Tesla charger, I wonder how often that gets left behind on public chargers.
